My Autobiography in Five Short Chapters
Chapter One....
"I walk
down the street. There is a deep hole in
the sidewalk. I fall in. I am lost.
I am helpless. It isn't my fault!
It takes me forever to find a way out."
Chapter Two....
"I walk
down the same street. There is a deep
hole in the sidewalk. I pretend I don't
see it. I fall in again. I can't believe I'm in the same place, but it isn't my
fault!! It still takes me a long time to
get out."
Chapter Three....
"I walk
down the same street. There is a deep
hole in the middle of the sidewalk. I
see it there. I still fall in....it is a habit. I know where I am. It is my fault. I get out immediately."
Chapter Four....
"I walk
down the same street. There is a deep
hole in the middle of the sidewalk.
I walk
around it."
Chapter Five....
"I walk down another street!"
